Bill Belichick and North Carolina fell inches short of a signature win.
The Tar Heels gambled in overtime, going for the win on a two-point conversion against No. 16 Virginia but didn’t cross the goal line to lose 17-16 despite a strong performance from the Tar Heel defense.
After Virginia scored a touchdown on its opening possession of overtime, North Carolina responded in kind on its first turn. But the offense stayed on the field, going for the win on the two-point attempt. Quarterback Gio Lopez rolled to his right and dumped it off to Benjamin Hall, but he was unable to extend the ball across the goal line, getting tackled right at the 1-yard line to end the game.
